The City of Laguna Niguel (“CITY”) makes athletic facilities and fields available to the public for recreational, social, civic, commercial, and private activities which are of inter est and need to the community. The Parks and Recreation F ields Use Policy is established to provide an effective framework for the administration of athletic facilities throughout the City by providing equitable and fair access to all users and ensuring that facility use aligns with the City’s mission, vision, values, ordinances, and policies.

The allocation of fields shall be done in a way that gives the highest priority to resident, youth-serving, non-profit, organizations that do not exclude participants based on ability. Field time will be granted in relation to each organization’s (not individual team’s) enrollment of Laguna Niguel Residents in comparison to that of other organizations seeking field time.
Specific rental/use procedures for each field will be made available during the allocation process.

F. SEASONAL ALLOCATION PROCEDURES
Parks and Recreation Department staff will hold two (2) field allocation meetings each year.
Staff and user groups will meet regarding allocation details, issues, or concerns related to the fall and spring seasons. City staff will determine field assignments based on rosters and past year’s use, and the assignment shall be final unless modified by written agreement of current users. Organizations with multiple levels of play, such as recreational and competitive, or youth and adult play will have each level of play independently categorized, allocated, and billed. For example, facility use for recreational play will be allocated and billed separately from facility use for competitive play, even if for the same organization.
Similarly, facility use by adult divisions (18+) will be allocated and billed separately from facility use for youth divisions (under 18), even if for the same organization. Organizations offering multiple levels of play will be required to specifically identify the type of play happening at each facility during the allocation and scheduling process, and facility use will be audited by field ambassadors to ensure the appropriate play is happening at all rented facilities.
Each organization will be required to submit the following information to the Parks and Recreation Department per season:
1. One main point of contact per organization including organization contact information.
2. An original Certificate of Insurance with endorsement(s). The insurance certificate must meet CITY requirements, name the CITY, and their officers, employe es, agents, and volunteers as additionally insured and cover all activities associated with the use of CITY facilities.
3. Proof of current non- profit status from Internal Revenue Service and State of California (ID number) if applicable.
4. All resident organizations are required to submit detailed participant rosters prior to seasonal allocation meetings. Rosters must be limited to core seasonal program and not include participants enrolled in camps, specialized clinics, or other non- core programs. Rosters must include the following information for each player:
a. Complete Name
b. Address
c. Division player is enrolled
*The City may also request, as needed, that proof of residency be verified by providing a utility bill or other approved documentation for each player.
5. A master calendar including the following information:
a. Registration dates
b. Tryouts/draft/skills evaluation dates
c. Date practices begin
d. Date league games begin
e. Date league games end
f. Dates of tournaments
g. Dates of all-star program
h. Dates of all other organization activities which may require assistance by city staff or use of city facilities
G. FIELD ALLOCATION FORMULA
Regular season scheduling begins 60 days prior to the sports season. Organizations may reserve fields based on the prior year’s same season registration numbers. Organizations are required to submit permit changes, or give back field time, according to real needs prior to the season. Parks and Recreation Department staff will issue permits for available fields to other user groups once the Category A organizations’ field needs /schedules are confirmed.
Facilities will be allocated within each category to or ganizations based on the percentage of verifiable Laguna Niguel residents registered with that organization in relation to the total number of all registered Laguna Niguel residents in all organizations in that category combined.
Verification of Laguna Niguel residency will be established by providing league registration rosters. The total number of all Laguna Niguel residents registered in all organizations within that category will then be determined. Each organizations’ resident number will be divided by the total of all residents registered to determine the percentage of use to be allocated to each group.
An example of this would be:
Category A Organization I has 400 Laguna Niguel residents; Category A Organization II has 600 Laguna Niguel residents.
Total number of Laguna Niguel residents registered in both organizations equals 1,000
400 divided by 1,000 equals 40%. Organization I would receive 40% of the available field time. 600 divided by 1,000 equals 60%. Organization II would receive 60% of the available field time.
Please note that field allocation may be determined at the discretion of City Staff and may vary by type of sport. The above example is an estimate only.
Non-Use of Facility
Any user that has been allocated City facility use and does not intend to use it, whether one time use or on a regular basis, must notify the City so the City facility may be re- allocated or otherwise scheduled. If proper notification is given to the City, then billing will be adjusted accordingly. Allocations will be adjusted on fields that are returned. Re-allocation will occur during the season according to the priority procedures established in this document.
H. ATHLETIC FACILITY USE POLICIES

Minimum time for reserved use of an athletic facility will be one (1) hour. A fraction of any hour used will be charged to the nearest ¼ hour at half the hourly rate. No refunds will be issued for time reserved but not used.

CLEANING FEE
All applicants requesting Athletic Facilities for large events (tournaments, camps, and clinics) may be required to pay a facility cleaning fee of $100 per sports field prior to facility use.
